My LO just turned 9 months but was born at 36 weeks so is 8 months corrected. He has been waking up earlier and earlier in the last 2 weeks. We are now at 4:30am and he refuses to go back to sleep no matter what I do to try and help him! He’s generally on 2 naps a day but we’ve had to move back to 3 naps lately beca...

I'm weening off pumping (9 months in) and I'm nervous about when the "last pump is". One boob is pretty much done but the other still gets 30ml within 5 mins. I'm just wondering, when do I just stop altogether. I'm really afraid of mastitis and equally so ready to retire the pumps. I've gone from every 3/4 hours for...

Anyone know why there is little granules still in bottle? I’ve attached picture. I use the nuby and a flask. I’ve read that sometimes if the waters too hot it can do that, but this is from this morning and I filled the flask up last night so I would’ve thought the water wouldn’t be boiling in the flask anymore and ...

My just over 6 mth old use to sleep from 7pm to around 5am which I was ok with but the last 6 nights she's awake nearly every hr , doesn't help me that due we only have a 1 bed propertie so she's still in with us but ide still be writing this post even if she had her own room because she will cry until I see to her....

Does anybody else’s baby thrash around in their sleep at night time? My little girls sleeps soundly on me, as soon as I put her down, her legs and arms go wild and she grunts. This means I can’t sleep as she keeps me awake and I’m constantly checking on her. Please help! One tired mama here

My 11 week old wakes around 5am kicking and screaming. I assume it’s gas? I know it’s developmental but is anyone experiencing the same and if so are you doing anything to help? Anyone using probiotics?

Starting to really panic these last few days have been really nerve wracking. I am an exclusive pumper (not giving up on breastfeeding still trying) but i was producing 5-6 1/2 oz bottles with ONE breast. All of a sudden no joke over night, i cant even get 2-4 oz BOTH breasts. I am doing everything i can, everything...

How long did everyone wait after giving birth to have sex? My boyfriend is feeling neglected and thinks I don't have time for him anymore. With a toddler and a new baby, it's extremely challenging because I'm a stay-at-home mom. I thought he would understand how I feel, especially since he works during the week and ...

we’re currently eating breakfast. dads sound asleep once again. when the fuck do the start sleeping through consistently! because i thought we had it until we changed to a toddler bed. im so tired of being tired.

My son is in the 99th percentile for both weight and height. He eats a lot more than kids his age and tbh he eats like every 2 hours, hes always snacking on something. Because he wants to, I’m not forcing him. The doctor says he’s fine like he isnt overweight, hes just a big baby and to keep doing what im doing. F...

Thoughts? We were at a birthday party with my 2 children and it was about time to leave I got my 16 month old out of the little car she was playing in to go say goodbye to my friend who’s sons party it was I sat my daughter on a chair and at the table and gave her a piece of watermelon to eat to distract her from b...

Has anyone taken low dose Xanax while breastfeeding? I feel like that is the only thing that will help me at this point with my anxiety and help to take the edge off and hopefully get some sleep. I already have to supplement some with formula, so my baby isn’t exclusively breastfed. Any insight would be super helpful!

My baby is waking in the night, she gets enough day time sleep, her naps are early enough before bed and she definitely gets enough milk. I'm wondering if I'm not feeding her enough at meal times. How much typically are we giving? TIA

(I've been up every 2hrs, for 2hrs, for 4w. Please don't use this post to brag about your excellent sleepers 🙏)

I’m really struggling with latching. I’m averagely endowed but with a bigger areola and struggling with getting baby to get a big latch. FTM and don’t know how to remedy this. My nips are cracked opened.

I’m at a loss I don’t know what to do. My baby still wakes multiple times a night, I usually nurse back to sleep because it’s the easiest and I’m exhausted. Whenever I try to rock him soothe him pat his butt whatever he just screams. I know nursing to sleep isn’t really helping him in the long run. I don’t want to d...

Is anyone else’s formula fed baby still wanting a feed in the night every 3 hours??? I know breastfeed babies want feeding regularly but my boy has 5, 6oz bottles in the day and is still wanting 2 or 3 in the night. Just seems excessive?

Must be able to buy in Canada - looking for the best crib. It doesn’t have to be convertible, as I will be getting a separate floor bed. Thank you❤️

I let husband pick since he has the member since I got to pick the names (first and middle) . I do understand this is a hot topic and alot have there opinions on this but we discuss this and also had a talk with the doctor about it they said it be the best option due to it being webbed so it's more on the medical re...
